Chris looks much better with the Tiara, Sonichu medal still looks somewhat awkward. Dislike the “Zap...” Text and the Lightning.
It could be a silly regal title for Christine for all I care.

Still prefer A though, with or without corn lasers.

There is/was a user around here that had an avatar of a saint like character holding an open book with the autism puzzle piece and the kiwi logo on the pages.

Something similar could also make for a rather nice alternative design!
 
I don't think that'll be likely, considering the dog and design isn't something Null owns. It's from a wikihow article iirc
Well ok, but something that has a connection to Null because while I understand the importance of Chris for KF, Null is and will probably keep being the autistic constant and integral part to the farms. Also giving the head janny some love <3 (full homo)
 
If I've given people the inclination that these merchandise runs are not to offset the expenses of the forum I apologize but they absolutely are and they do help tremendously.

I do like the idea of providing people some tangible item to prove the community existed, though.

I may be mistaken but could've sworn it was something you had said during one of the merch runs and if that wasn't the case my bad. Regardless, all the better that it does help offset the costs by the end of it.

The masonic-vibe designs are so fucking amusing to me I love them, but people seem inclined to have Chris on it, which I'm not entirely a fan of, but it's not that much of a deterrent for me personally to not get one or two. - But for the love of god we so need a "Fuck the banks" inscription on one of these for top quality kek.

And fuck any notion of having Tommy "Kiddie and dog fucker" Tooter on anything that isn't a bargain bin pine box with a plastic tombstone.
 
Even though I never followed Chris, I think he should be on the coin (or whatever you have to call it). He may not be a part of my history, but he is a part of the forum’s history and without him none of us would be here, so he should be used. I pick the original. Besides, seems to me a coin should have a person on one side. If you do another, it has to be you, @Null, or a version of your dog avatar. :)

But what happened to the W in Kiwi? It looks like a cancer/disease ribbon.

(Also am not thrilled you said the “forum existed”, past tense...)
 
I like the all-seeing Kiwi pyramid, with the Lumberjack a close second. I don't really get the middle one.
I’m pretty sure it’s supposed to be a pillory, as a reference to how analogous we are to public humiliation in ye olden times. I really like the Kiwi-lluminati but the Chris one is really funny. I agree on the corn lazers being somewhat out of place.
 
I'm aggressively pursuing quotes again and to kill some time lets do another poll about the design.

I asked the artists to kick some designs that had a 'masonic' vibe to them as an alternative to Chris.

To be clear, I don't want to do Terry because I feel that's exploitative unless done along the wishes of his family.

I also don't really want to do other living people besides Chris because Chris is the only lolcow on the site I wouldn't mind paying some money for use of their likeness. Someone like Tommy Tooter could and would sue and with some merit, and someone like Jace is just weird because Jan is very much alive and still doing shit with MDE.

The logo is already on the front so to do a reverse without relying on Chris we'd have to get creative.

I was hesitant to buy with a human on them, but if it's the masonic ones (especially the pyramid) then I'm in.
 
I really like the internet lumberjack design. Nice reference to Chris without directly featuring him, but I think it needs some quote or some phrase to really tie it together. Whatever design, I think the coin needs to have some reference to Chris.

I do like the Second Alternative, I like how symmetrical it is, I'll probably pass it on to my grandkids one day and tell them I was a part of some masonic cult or something for shits and giggles.
 
Can someone explain the corn to me please
Long story short: Ethan Ralph was offended by Null's joke that sacrificing him "to the corn" would help make IBS more lively, so Ralph proceeded to fuck up his own life immensely just to spite Null. Ever since, The Corn Harvest, sacrificing to the corn, and corn farming have been used pretty frequently on and off the forum to refer to KF and Kiwis.
